J: Pierre-Louis Jamin

T: Grant Tuer

Acts on most ground; has won three handicaps at Musselburgh this season and gained her first Listed success when scoring at Chester (7f, good) in June, but she was below that level at Pontefract (1m) last month; has a better draw than she did when down the field in this contest last year but is now 11lb higher than when last seen in handicap company.

Could hardly be coming into this in better form, winning four of her last five starts including another Listed event at Chester (7f, good) ten days ago; still favoured on these terms despite her 3lb penalty and although the stiffer mile is one small question mark, she is a major player nonetheless.

This 5yo is in the form of her life at present, gaining a third Musselburgh handicap win of the season when easily seeing off seven rivals 37 days ago; had a wide stall as a an excuse for a slightly below-par effort over the extended 7f here prior to that and she went close here last season; on the shortlist.

In fine form in 2025, completing her hat-trick at Kempton (1m) in February; posted a solid fifth off a career-high mark in 7f handicap here last time so ought to be thereabouts once more.

Four wins at around 1m on the AW including one over C&D in January; having dropped to a mark just 1lb higher than when last successful, she ran well to finished third of nine at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) 13 days ago; can't be discounted.

Form & Verdict
A fair 7f winner for Archie Watson last season and she made an encouraging start for her new yard after eight months off when fourth of 11 in 7f Lingfield handicap 15 days ago; she's in the mix off a 2lb lower mark.

Struck at the sixth time of asking for David O'Meara when swooping late at Doncaster (1m, good) 12 days ago; this is a significantly stronger race than that 0-78 and she's back up 5lb, but 5lb claimer Warren Fentiman is recruited.

Out of sorts on turf in her last two runs, but six of her seven wins have been on Tapeta (including over C&D) and latest was off 3lb at Wolverhampton in December; usually comes from off the pace and she's one to keep an eye on back in this sphere.
